Personal Statement
I stated playing golf at around age 6 and have always dreamed of playing in college. After I made the Varsity golf team at Waukee High School my freshman year, my passion grew and I knew I wanted to continue working on this goal. Golf is a huge part of my life along with basketball and show choir. These three activities keep me extremely busy, along with maintaining my GPA. Over the past 12 months my golf game has improved significantly. My sophomore and junior years I helped advance my team to the 4A State Golf Tournament, and my senior year we won the state tournament. This year as an individual at the state tournament I placed in the top 20 with my 2-day score and placed 1st in our district meet.
I was voted "Warrior of the Year" this year on our Varsity Team - this award was given to me because of my attitude, dedication and sportsmanship on AND off the golf course. This was voted on by my teammates and coaches. To me, this was an incredible honor. I have great pride in the decisions that I make and plan to continue this attitude though out my golf career
My family has a history of college athletics and I hope to carry on the tradition. I plan to work hard in the off season and continue to maintain my GPA.
